On Wednesday, she made a surprise visit to a refugee camp in northern France, where food and children's books were among the supplies she handed out.

And by the following day, Pamela Anderson took some time out of her philanthropic efforts to play tourist as she visited the breathtaking church Sacré-Cœur in Paris.

And the former Baywatch star, 49, looked delightfully chic for the outing, donning a white button-down playsuit, which she teamed with black tights and booties and an eye-catching wide-brimmed black hat.

Delightful sights: Pamela Anderson was seen visiting Sacré-Cœur in Paris on Thursday

The committed vegan and animal rights campaigner staved off the inclement winter weather with a stark white faux fur coat, which added extra pizazz to her ensemble.

And she blended in with the dozens of tourists making their way around the grand Montmartre attraction, toting an SLR camera alongside her black handbag as she set out to record her memories.

Mother-of-two Pamela appeared not to take the journey alone, as she was seen chatting with a man on the outdoor steps of imposing hilltop church.

Hat's the way to do it: She teamed her delightfully stylish outfit with a wide-brimmed black hat

Companion: She was seen chatting with a male as she stood on the steps to the building

Blending in: The Canadian-born star blended in with the dozens of tourists at the attraction

A day before, she made a visit to the La Liniere camp outside Dunkirk, after making a stop at an aid group's warehouse in Calais, where a huge makeshift camp harbouring thousands of migrants was closed after a forced evacuation in October.

Wearing high heels, she stooped to distribute fruit to children and passed out blankets, gloves and children's books.

La Voix du Nord newspaper quoted her as saying that everyone should see what a camp is like and ask what they can do.

Rest: She rested on one of the church's several outdoor steps as she took in the view

Philanthropic efforts: Just a day earlier, she was seen visiting refugees in northern France

Solemn: She looked solemn as she quietly made her way around the interior of the church 

Snap decision: The mother-of-two was seen angling her SLR camera at the breathtaking view

The Canadian-born star promotes animal, human and environmental rights but, of course, she initially shot to fame as a pin-up girl and for her role in Baywatch. 

Writing on her blog Anderson said: 'I'm leaving Dunkirk now. I'm speechless. I'm so angry. The children are so lovely and polite. I gave out blankets, hats, gloves, fruit, colouring books and crayons.

'Some were so fearful they wouldn't get a blanket or crayons or an apple -It was chaos. I'll never forget today. I brought some whisky to the volunteers. 

Jovial: She appeared to be in jovial spirits as she chatted outside the Montmartre venue

Blogger: After visiting the refugees, she wrote about her experience on her personal blog

Relaxing: The day out proved to be a relaxing change after her previous time at the camps

Mission accomplished: She looked pleased with her trip as she descended the many steps

'What an unusual and extraordinary group. They are amazing. They have been there for months, years. From the Calais Jungle to diff camps - tossed around.'

The model-turned-activist wants to encourage more people to visit the camp.

She said: 'Imagine if every person could come see this? Policy would change. It's hard to engage people to act without empathy - and unfortunately most people don't feel it by watching the news; but, by meeting people and seeing for themselves - It would change everything.'

The model added: 'Just people trying to live. I encourage more people to come visit, and volunteer if at all possible. It's just not fair. Closing borders, and closing people out is not the answer. It's backwards.'

Visit: The day before, she visited refugee children at camp of Grande-Synthe, northern France 

Surprise! The actress-turned activist's visit to the children was planned as a surprise

Change: She also wrote, 'Imagine if every person could come see this? Policy would change'
